Free Medical Access for Teenage Mothers, Bulgaria

Dear supporters,

We're sharing with you the story of a young family - Salina and Stoil and their baby Radoslav - who are one of many that your support has reached.

Radoslav is two months old, the first child in the family, expected and wanted. Both his parents have completed their secondary education and are working – his father is a taxi driver, and his mom – a hairdresser and beautician. Salina's pregnancy was monitored regularly. Despite that, she had high blood pressure throughout the pregnancy and Radoslav was born prematurely with a c-section.

Two months later, the baby is doing well and both he and his mom are recovering quickly. Visiting the medical center, which your contributions support, has turned out to be crucial for his health. It has allowed them to have regular check-ups and consultations to monitor Radoslav’s development, as their personal doctor is a general practitioner and not a pediatrician. The accessibility of the medical center in their neighborhood is also vital. The consultations with Dr Baynova in this crucial period are invaluable for the young family, as being prematurely born, Radoslav is at risk of developmental delay. We extend our gratitude to her for ensuring that dozens of babies like Radoslav have a healthy childhood, and we also thank you, for helping us sustain the medical center without which these consultations would hardly be possible.

Here at TSA we're having a busy summer with the 5th-year anniversary of the medical center approaching (and next time you hear from us will be in honor of that!) and with our summer donation campaign celebrating life - read more about this here. https://socialachievement.org/en/what-we-do/news-and-publications/news/mom-baby-donation-appeal/505/                            

Thank you!
